With covers is the best!!! - Samoth of Emperor/Nocturnal Art
Productions

You might know that there are some of black metal fans in Korea. About 3
years ago, Some of Korean has listened to EMPEROR, DIMMU BOGIR,
SATRYCON, or somewhat. I know that Korea is the country where many
black-ish albums are sold. I introduced OATHEAN last time, and here come
SAD LEGEND.

This album is made of 7 songs and about 40 minutes long. As OATHEAN,
SAD LEGEND sings with Korean lylic.

SAD LEGEND was just one-man band. Only NAMAAH(d, v) was the
member when he released first demo tape. And gathered some members
later. I'm not sure SL is just a group, or one-man project band.

OATHEAN and SAD LEGEND both play KOREAN traditional-ish black
metal, but there are some differences. OATHEAN used Korean instrumental,
as 'Dae-Geum' (like flute) and 'Hae-Geum' (like violin). But SAD LEGEND
used no Korean instrumental. Their playing style is alike Northern Europe
style, but we can feel Korean feeling through it. We, Korean, can feel it
directly, because it's ours. And you, foreigner, could feel it ethnic, what you
feel from Northern Europe traditional black metal.

If you're a big black metal fan, or if you like ethnic-metal fan, or just if you
like oriental-ish music, just check this CD out. Just from the artwork of
album cover, you could feel some Korean feeling. 'HAN'.

'HAN' is one of important thing in Korean ancient culture, but it's very
difficult to tell you briefly. Just listen, and feel it. And you could take it.
